On these retreats, new teens experienced similar activities as those would on a regular retreat, including conversations, cooking, time in nature, creating projects, journaling, and time alone. 15589 25075 Partner: Valo did significant outreach in 2024 and collaborated with schools and other youth serving organizations to bring Valo programming to them. Each partner program was a 1-night, 2-day retreat for the group, and then Valo met periodically following that retreat to continue mentoring the participants in conversation skills. These programs are fee-for-service; in some cases, the organization or school paid, and in other cases we had grants to cover the costs. 172740 31125 443199 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 10 0 false 13 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 5 5 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X X KRYSTON LEMAY 2078996998 121 MAIN STREET YARMOUTH ME 04096 X DANA ANDERSON EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 127850 0 0 Sam Coleman Pres & Treas 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sally Thomas Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Tony Giampetruzzi Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Burns Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Fiona Chace-Donahue Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 127850 1 false false false 0 457120 457120 FEES FOR SERVICE 611710 49875 49875 49875 29890 29890 0 0 0 119082 1540 122372 1276 -3290 264 -3026 264 -3290 0 0 0 other income 900099 789 789 789 534648 50928 26600 0 0 0 0 127850 89496 6392 31962 0 275952 218119 13647 44186 5348 4334 267 747 0 35492 27031 1770 6691 0 1387 1387 8329 475 7736 118 0 0 1006 1006 16486 14035 513 1938 833 833 3140 866 1219 1055 2253 1852 84 317 0 24686 19504 1084 4098 1415 1395 4 16 0 17805 16178 1544 83 0 0 116 116 12421 8615 2194 1612 PROGRAM EXPENSES 40557 38653 182 1722 Postage and Shipping 801 610 40 151 Printing and Publications 688 543 10 135 MEMBERSHIPS & DUES 648 507 4 137 221 37 115 69 577434 443199 39198 95037 182213 222265 451502 370889 97004 56488 7750 27675 0 0 0 0 5704 5340 1392 0 195706 208147 0 0 12614 28532 0 953885 919336 18807 5970 12687 28532 31494 34502 X 825387 826086 97004 58748 922391 884834 953885 919336 -42786 5229 X false false false X 187742 229505 190715 286095 457120 1351177 0 0 187742 229505 190715 286095 457120 1351177 439450 911727 77 3162 4651 9851 29890 47631 0 250 600 8645 50664 60159 1458967 0.62490 0.23440 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED LEASE LIABILITY 28532 28532 534648 534648 534648 577434 577434 577434 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Valo Board receives a draft of the 990 so that they can review and approve before it is submitted.
